Teeth Cleanings

Quick answer: A professional teeth cleaning at Redwater Dental Clinic is a 30–60 minute appointment with one of our registered dental hygienists, who removes plaque and tartar above and below the gumline using ultrasonic and hand instruments, then polishes and flosses your teeth. Most healthy adults benefit from a cleaning every six months; patients with gum disease or higher cavity risk may need them every three to four months.
